SEO - Société Électrique de l'Our

The Société Électrique de l'Our (SEO) operates the pumped storage power station in Vianden, producing peak electricity. The Luxembourg State and the German energy supply company RWE Power are the main shareholders, each holding 40.3% of the shares. By virtue of their eleven plants in all (the eleventh will be commissioned during the second half of 2013), the SEO is capable of feeding the interconnected European network with almost 1,300 megawatts of peak electricity from the Vianden power station.

The SEO is also active in the fields of hydroelectric and wind power stations. It operates three hydroelectric power stations on the Luxembourg section of the River Moselle (Schengen-Apach, Stadtbredimus-Palzem and Grevenmacher) and four on the French part of the River Moselle (Koenigsmacker, Uckange, Liégeot and Pompey) through subsidiaries or holding companies.

The SEO and the energy supplier Enovos Luxembourg hold equal shares in the company Soler S.A., which operates three hydroelectric power stations in Luxembourg (Esch-sur-Sûre, Ettelbruck and Rosport), the wind power stations “Wandpark Burer Bierg”, “Wandpark Kehmen-Heischent”, “Wandpark Hengischt” and “Windpower” on the “Pafebierg” in the commune of Mompach and stations in Heiderscheid and Binsfeld.
